    BBQ chicken wings with a side of blue cheese dressing.
    Debora S.

    Decent tex-mex restaurant in the area. All I really wanted were the wings since I've gone crazy trying to find decent chicken wings down here. They were actually quite decent. Covered in BBQ sauce with a side of blue cheese dressing. Ordered a margarita. Strong and tasty. The other items on the menu sounded really delicious, but like I said, I've been on a mission to find chicken wings down here and came upon this place on foot. Beachfront location. They have indoor and outdoor seating. The waiters were very nice.

    They finally got corn tortillas for tacos! Now I can eat here gluten-free!…read more The lady who constructed my taco was really nice! She even let me throw on one extra condiment free of charge (shhh). I got a taco with black beans, veggies, sautéed onion salsa, guacamole and some medium salsa. It was really good and hearty. 3 tacos is only 25 reais! Can't beat that! There are some high tables outside. They are a bit crooked but still nice to sit outside. Good and quick option for lunch or dinner.

    Whoohoo! Thanks yelpers Ryan and Fernando for pointing this place out. We don't spend much time in…read moreIpanema anymore but we're coming back from centro and wanted something for lunch. We remembered our friends' reviews and happened to jump out of the bus on the right block. There's three little restaurants, all fairly new, on this block all right next to each other and we'll have to come back to check them out. Overall great concept, good use of a tiny space with a glass counter so you can both see and pick your toppings (handy if you forgot the Portuguese words!) with a bar along the other side for maybe 8 seats. The area looked clean, well managed with a tiny bathroom in the back, hooks under the counter to hang your back and even an outlet to plug in your electronic. Options of meat (frango, carnitas, barbacoa, chili or veggie) and a variety of salsas, and toppings (cheese, sour cream, rice, beans, etc) gives you the opportunity to customize your meal. We got the small burrito (which was a healthy portion) with carnitas, cheese, sour cream and the hottest sauce. Unlike Chipotle, they actually mix the ingredients before rolling up the burrito so you don't have all the meat on one end of the burrito and cheese on the other. Despite the chili markings saying it was spicy (and I don't like spicy) it wasn't. However the chicken quesadilla with cheese, tomato, and pico de gallo was significantly spicer (despite saying it was mild). The slushy margarita mix with optional add in flavors of strawberry or green apple it exactly as it sounds. Don't expect any recognizable brand of tequila. Plenty of other refrigerantes were available as well. They do deliver and you can do take out too, so it's convenient either way. Pleasantly surprised by this find.

    First impression walking in here: the smell. It's the smell of bad decisions, spilled beer, and…read morenot-cleaned-up upchuck. It's like they modeled themselves after a US dive bar, and somehow imported a certain eau-du-hurl from a place like The Alley in Carlsbad. I'm in beautiful Ipanema in beautiful Rio, why-the-f would I want that? Never ate here, for reason stated above, but beers were cheap and cold and guys serving them have a good sense of humor. There is a patio area across the street in the General Osorio plaza that is open on busy summer nights. I think it's theirs but I never hung out there. Want somewhere with good food, strong caipirinhas, and a new-bar-smell? Go diagonal across the plaza to the new Belmonte, and see my other review, which I'm writing up shortly...

    Banana Jack is a great place to go out and celebrate any occasion with a group of friends. Besides…read morethe pub, Banana Jack has a great space outside with a nice ambience. Every once in a while during the evening you get the opportunity to swing the wheel of fortune for extra discount or free drinks. Also for funny drinking games you are at the right place at Banana Jack. If you want to be sure to enjoy an evening at Banana Jack you'd better make a reservation, because it can be pretty crowded. Don't expect 'haute cuisine' or a perfect attendance, you go to Banana Jack to drink and have a good time with your friends!
